A mother left fifteen-year-old Caroline and six-year-old Paulina in order to run away to Africa with Mr. Tongo Bongo. Sounds like drama? It would seem so at first, especially since the eternally young, rocker father needs to be taken care of. Different women begin to appear in the house. Entertaining Violetta lacks culinary talents, resourceful Ilona is rather temperamental, and beautiful, lazy Angelica throws tantrums. Mr. Tongo Bongo’s estranged wife, gorgeous, black beauty named Cleopatra also shows up. After a year-long absence, mom comes back, but not for her children. When times get tough, Caroline calls her Gran Freda for help. Freda is a sharp-tongued woman, which comes in handy with preventing further disasters, and a wisdom to teach her granddaughters the joy of life. Good cuisine plays an integral part in this education. The joyous existence is threatened by the health food maniac Elvira. Manula Kalicka’s book is charming and warm story, full of funny anecdotes and seems like a modern fairy-tale. Above all, it is heartwarming and proves that intelligence, sense of humor and good food can solve toughest of problems. *** Readers’ reviews: "Charming, warm story of two sisters raised by a single father. Full of funny anecdotes and clever points. Set in modern Polish reality, manages to seem like a fairy tale at the same time. First of all, it is invigorating, because it proves that even the hardest problem can be solved using intelligence, sense of humor and delicious food. Crazy, funny dialogues, out of this world adventures, which can be read without worrying for happy ending, are set in known, though socially tangled Warsaw’s suburb. The plot is cleverly twined with quotes from Oscar Wilde, fr. Jozef Tischner and Wislawa Szymborska, which add the novel a bit of educational frame. Oh, and there are also very clever descriptions of girlfriends passing through dad’s house, ones who stay for a little while, though they would like to stay forever. There is also a grandma who comes from Warsaw to see her granddaughters. She’s smart and crazy, mischievous and happy. Just like the book." "Perfect for those sad days." "Unusually light and colorful read. Technically perfect for young readers, but I think I’ll reach back for it many times, simply because of life wisdom contained in main character’s grandmother." "The story told from teenager’s point of view, which is why it’s original, interesting, and funny! There is no room for boredom here, there’s only room for laughter. This book really lifts the spirits up, so it has my highest praise.".

The internet is both a zoo and a jungle," writes Caro, the heroine of Virtually Yours. Fascinated by the possibilities, she transforms herself into Emma, and immerses herself in the artificial paradise behind the familiar screen of her computer. Like Alice in Wonderland, she meets an assortment of the strangest beings imaginable in her virtual adventure: Luckyman, Swamper, Oldenwomanlover, and a mysterious Englishman who is constantly morphing from one persona to the next. Caro finds herself addicted to the web, and to the mystery of the man known as Penocrat. For a while, she almost forgets what brought her to the internet in the first place: the search for love in the modern age. Will she find love in the end? Will she find herself? Only time will tell. An amusing, humor-filled story about one woman's adventures in the virtual zoo that is the internet, with huge doses of laughter along the way.
